Chapter 745: Landing Plan
At noon the next day, a brigade of the forward brigade of the Third Army opened the way to Jeju Island, and while taking over the Fifth Wing in front of the dock, it sent the Fifth Wing on board the ship and went to Pyongyang for reorganization. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
After Ding Ruchang got the smooth takeover of Jeju Island, he did not hesitate, but ordered the navy and ships collected from all over the world to start transporting supplies and troops to Jeju Island day and night, and he also relocated the Northern Front Group Headquarters to Jeju Island two days later. Prepare to personally command here.
Jeju, the headquarters of the Third Army, is now also the temporary command of the former enemy.
In the headquarters, Ding Ruchang, who had only arrived in Jeju yesterday, was sitting in a chair, looking at a telegram sent by Lushun not long ago, which mentioned that the troops of three divisions were heading north, and it was estimated that they were coming because of the current situation on Jeju Island.
Three divisions, this is not good news for Ding Ruchang, because even if the Japanese army does not mobilize three divisions to the north, it will have to face seven divisions, and they are all main divisions, and the combat effectiveness of these divisions and regiments cannot be compared with the second-rate troops on Shikoku Island.
The placement of the main forces in Kyushu was an order given by the Japanese base camp after careful consideration.
From the perspective of the base camp, the role of Kyushu is higher than that of the rest of the country, after all, this is the largest territory in Japan, and at the same time, it is also the most prosperous area in Japan, and almost 80% of the industry is concentrated on Kyushu Island.
maintained, the Japanese army was in the north, seven divisions were placed, and in the south, ten divisions were placed,
"Three divisions, he really looks up to me." Ding Ruchang, who put the telegram aside, snorted coldly, and after putting the telegram aside from his chair, he stood up and walked outside the big tent.
The big tent is on a hillside not far from the sea, and from here you can clearly see the situation on the other side of the beach.
It's not a good idea to describe it as a sea of people, and the beach is full of people walking and piling up like a mountain. In the distance, there are naval ships moored on the surface of the sea, and those ships patrol the sea back and forth, and form a huge protective ring to protect the beach. The battleship is constantly giving patrol orders and adjustment orders.
Ding Ruchang was originally an old navy, and he clearly knew that the navy would modify the patrol array without a period of time, because he was worried that the formation would be exposed.
The naval formation is exposed, which may give the enemy the opportunity to exploit the loophole, which means that the supplies on the beach will suffer great danger, and may even be wiped out.
On the beach now, there is not only food for food, but also military supplies, ammunition, quilts, etc. If someone with bad intentions shoots at the beach at this time. It was really a singing exhibition.
It was precisely because of this reason that Ding Ruchang issued an order to send all the Japanese troops to Pyongyang to the Third Army that had accepted the surrender, and then ordered that no one should be allowed to enter within 10 kilometers of the surrounding area, that is, martial law.
As for the navy, he also ordered that five nautical miles away, once a foreign ship is found to enter, it can be directly sunk.
After all, it's not safe for anyone to come in.
It's a safe thing, it's been five days now, and there's no problem here, that's the best thing.
"How many troops have we transported up." Ding Ruchang, who took a deep breath, looked at the staff officer beside him and asked.
There are quite a few, listening to the report of the staff officer, there are now three armies, that is, a corps plus an army of 60,000 troops.
60,000 is completely okay for landing operations to open up tidal flat positions. And the target of the attack, which has been chosen by himself, is a small fishing village called Dabantu.
This small fishing village, to be honest, is not suitable for landing, the sea water is too shallow, therefore, the Japanese army did not place troops here, but there is a wing, however, I have investigated, this place, as soon as it reaches about eleven, the sea water will suddenly surge, almost for three days, and these three days, although like Yi? Such a large ship could not enter, but torpedo cruisers and armored cruisers were able to pass,
And himself, during this time, will be able to transport at least 50,000 troops, and these 50,000 troops will go west to attack the Japanese coastal port located 100 kilometers away, and he will lead the main force to attack from the sea, cooperate with this force, and take a large landing site.
Now, the time has reached the ninth day, and there are still two days to wait, and the tide will begin to rise over there, as long as there is a high tide in the big slab, their troops will be dispatched, and now, the plan has been reported to Lushun yesterday, if the commander above answers himself, then he will start the attack.
Lushun Headquarters, in front of the map of Kyushu in Japan, Liu Jun, who was sitting on a small stool, spent nearly ten minutes after receiving Ding Ruchang's telegram to find the name of the place called Dabantu on it.
It's a fishing village, and it's very inconspicuous, two hundred meters away, it's impossible for large boats to enter, and the beach is a very bad muddy place, and it's hard to walk.
"Head, I've been thinking about it for a day, do you think it's time to call them back?" Seeing where Liu Jun was just drinking tea, but didn't say anything, Zhong Lin asked after taking a step forward.
This, Liu Jun looked at Zhong Lin standing in front of him, he really wanted to agree to this plan, however, Liu Jun had a big doubt, that is, on the eleventh, where would the sea rise, if it did not rise, this plan would not be realized at all, and it would delay time.
"I've had people check that place, it is true that the sea rises on those days of the month, but the retreat time is unstable, sometimes three days, sometimes five days, but almost, it starts in the afternoon of the third day, retreats." Zheng Yiqian on the side stepped forward, picked up a document in her hand and handed it to Liu Jun.
Brushing, Liu Jun, who took the document and looked at it a few times, finally threw away the doubt in his heart, if this is really the case, then he has no reason to disagree with this plan, after all, this plan is something that no one would have thought of, he really wants to see what kind of expression Inoue Xin will have after knowing the news.
"Send a telegram to Ding Ruchang and agree to their plan." Without any consideration, Liu Jun directly gave the order, (to be continued.) )
